I have extreme anxiety when I have to leave the house at the minute due to my weight and being constantly ridiculed by complete strangers, that I have resulted to staying indoors and not mixing with anyone, so todays appointment was a lot for me to do. As soon as I was met at the door by a lovely member of staff, I was put at ease with her warm friendly manner and was told of each process before doing it so I knew what I had to do! When I went into the scan room the staff in there helped me so much and didn't make me feel self-conscious or embarrassed about my appearance. They spoke to me and constantly made sure I was ok in the scanner and just let me know they were there.
I now know that if for any reason I have to go through this again that I have nothing to be worries about.
"Excellent place"
